Podcast Feminism, Fascism, and the Future

This podcast was born out of fear of the future and out of a deep and abiding belief that feminism can save us. We are hoping these episodes will motivate you to organize and fight back as feminists for all marginalized bodies, which is to say, the bodies targeted by fascism. By connecting the dots and seeing how this fascism operates by making us the enemy, but also by trying to get us to fight one another, we hope to change the future. One feminist episode at a time. Special thanks to the team, Laurie Essig, Alison Segar, Harper Nichols, El Fahey, and so many more!

    3. We Gotta Talk About Sex

    We have to talk about sex if we are going to talk about the anti-gender movement. You see, the anti-gender movement is rooted in the belief that sex is simple - boys and girls, penises and vaginas. But actually, sex has never been that simple and rather than assuming we know what sex and gender are because they're "obvious" we talk to one of the world's foremost authorities on just how messy sex and gender are. In this episode, feminist writer and journalist Judith Levine talks with Rebecca Jordan Young, author of Testosterone: An Unauthorized Biography. We also talk with Julianna Neuhauser about how this right wing belief that sex is easy to understand overlaps with trans-exclusionary feminists' "gender critical" stance. And how sometimes, the politics of believing sex is a binary can make for really strange bedfellows.

    2. How the Anti-Gender Movement Got Political

    In this episode we talk to a variety of experts on the anti-gender ideology movement. They explain its history in the Catholic Church and how it slipped into far-right political movements starting in Russia, but spreading through Europe, Latin America, and the United States. Find out why Vladimir Putin and Ron DeSantis have the same policies and why feminists, LGBTQ activists, and others are fighting back to save democracy itself.

    1. Introduction

    In this episode, we introduce what’s coming for us. It’s fascism, pure and simple and it’s spreading across the globe. But this time fascism is against “gender ideology” as well as the usual suspects (like Jews or migrants). This new fascism blames feminism, LGBTQ activism, and gender studies for everything that’s wrong and wants to make a world without women’s rights and LGBTQ rights. If you aren’t scared of the anti-gender movement yet, you will be after listening to this.
